TL;DR: Adult height has directionally opposing relationships with risk of death from several different major causes of chronic diseases.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that pre-pregnancy dietary patterns may affect women’s risk of developing GDM, and a diet high in red and processed meat was associated with a significantly elevated risk.

TL;DR: The EDII represents a novel, hypothesis-driven, empirically derived dietary pattern that assesses diet quality based on its inflammatory potential and may be calculated in a standardized and reproducible manner across different populations thus circumventing a major limitation of dietary patterns derived from the same study in which they are applied.

TL;DR: Consumption of SSBs was positively associated with mortality primarily through CVD mortality and showed a graded association with dose and the positive association between high intake levels of ASBs and total andCVD mortality observed among women requires further confirmation.

TL;DR: Using 1000 Genomes Project–imputed genotype data in up to ∼370,000 women, 389 independent signals for age at menarche, a milestone in female pubertal development are identified, highlighting the complexity of the genetic regulation of puberty timing and support causal links with cancer susceptibility.
